Politics can be a gnarly pursuit. You can’t not laugh at this one, even the PM smiled as he stood up. You’ll know what I mean by watching this video: https://youtube.com/...o?feature=share

Oops. And not just once, but twice.

International Trade Minister Mary Ng has apologized after Canada's conflict of interest and ethics commissioner concluded she placed herself in a conflict of interest through her involvement in a decision by her office to award contracts to a friend's company.

Ng's office signed contracts for media and communications training with public relations agency Pomp & Circumstance, co-founded and run by Amanda Alvaro.

The commissioner stated in his report, released Tuesday, that Ng and Alvaro are friends according to the definition in the Conflict of Interest Act. Alvaro is a regular panellist on CBC's Power & Politics.

The contracts were signed on behalf of the minister in March 2019 and April 2020.

"Minister Ng twice failed to recognize a potential conflict of interest involving a friend, an oversight of her obligations under the Conflict of Interest Act," Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion said in a news release.

"There is simply no excuse for contracting with a friend's company."

…


In question period Tuesday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre asked whether Ng will be required to pay back the money awarded in the contracts.

Trudeau did not answer the question. Instead, he talked about the Liberals' victory in Monday's Mississauga-Lakeshore byelection.

Singh had his very own Trump moment when he announced to the House of Commons while admonishing Trudeau, that when he becomes PM (…”when I'm Prime Minister…”) to which the House responded by erupting in laughter.

Will that have set Singh off on a journey to actually become PM, like the response to Obama’s joke set off Trump to become president?

Watch here: https://twitter.com/...Q_DAkdbrXHAlIAg

Can we just get Singh to stop propping up Trudeau and have an election already?

If Singh triggers an election it is possible that either the Libs or the Cons will win enough seats to not require his support.  He would lose his little scrap of influence and possibly his pension as well.  So there’s nothing in it for him.

^^ Ha!
That should put a bee in his bonnet…so to speak.

Yes, exactly right. He is going to talk all day long about how the Liberals are bad and how they break their promises, but they’re all the federal NDP have.

I'm opposed to much of MAiD, but I do not find this handbook all too distressing.  The idea is to tell kids plainly what the process is about.

To me this statement is going to cause nothing but confusion about what medicine is:

 

MAID is defined in the booklet as the use of medicines to stop a “person’s body from working.”

I wish they wouldn't spend so much money lying to us.... I wonder how much these video cost? 

 

Shall I count the lies in this latest video?

1. Trudeau is NOT cool like James Bond.

2. They do not have authority over Santa.

3. Santa doesn't need their permission for anything. 

4. Omar is also not cool.

Either Santas is real or our country boldly lies? I guess the drama teacher thought this was a good idea

Is it healthy as one of the first things we do children is feed them bold lies? Just systemic abuse?

Trudeau is a poor actor, for a drama teacher.
